Tebow Is Better, But Still Not Cleared To Play

Posted by admin on October 5th, 2009   No Comment

Florida has had their calenders marked for this upcoming Saturday the moment the date was announced, but they were not expecting to possibly be without their heart and soul Quarterback, Tim Tebow. With only 5 days left until the Gators travel to Baton Rouge, Tebow has not yet been cleared to return and face the Tigers this weekend.

Good signs are showing that Tim is no longer suffering from any headaches or any concussion symptoms. Matter of fact, it has been several days now since he has had any minor headaches. Tebow is doing just about anything besides practicing right now. He sat out again in Today’s practice. He can now do several things including watch some TV because earlier in the week he wasn’t allowed to do anything that made him focus. No computer, using the cell phone, nothing. Tim has been taking tests that dealt with his memory and they all came out positive. So that is a good note.

There is no telling if Tebow will be able to practice this week but he still has a chance to play but that’s if he is cleared before Saturday. It’s going to be difficult for Tim to not practice at all and show up Saturday and expect to do well against a great LSU defense, so its still a little early to tell if he is ready to go.

“I can’t answer that,” Meyer said. “Can Tim play quarterback at Florida against a very good defense without practicing? I don’t know that. It’s going to be as we move on.”

But if I had to say, I think he should be ready by at least Thursday.

Coach Meyer told the media that the day Tebow is cleared, he will let everyone know and not keep it a secret. I have heard people talk about how Meyer is keeping it to the team so the LSU coaches don’t find out and so that they prepare for Brantley and what not. Well that’s not true. Even without Tebow on the field Saturday there is still going to be other weapons that’s looking to do some damage.
